Chords for Tift Merritt - Stray Paper (Live From Austin TX)

[Gm] _ _ I got a _ postcard _ _ [F] with an old [C] address, a [Gm] picture of Houston, _ _ _
_ [F] then the beat [C] of a miss [Gm] just to remind _ me _ [C] that it all [Gm] went [F] wrong. _
_ [Bb] Just leave me alone.
_ [C] Just turn me on.
[Gm] _ [F] _ _ Straight [Dm] paper, _ [F] _ _ _ straight [Dm] _
paper, [Gm] _ [F] _ _ straight [Dm] _
paper.
[Bb] _ _ Burning in my [C] _ _
hands, _ _ cigarettes in [Gm] the clubhouse.
_ _ _ With [F] the classified [C] _ ads, [Gm] ashes in the sewer.
_ I wanna [F] walk into [C] your hands.
[Gm] I gotta see you on [C] a bar _ [F] _ napkin, gas [Bb] station quarters.
_ _ I [C] got to see you _ [G] again.

_ [Bb] _ _ _
Burning [C] in my _ hands, _ _ somewhere [Gm] in the letter
_ that _ _ [F] I _ [C] never sent.
It [Gm] used to read pretty. _ _ _
_ [F] Now it's [Dm] empty [C] as that [Gm] night in the _ headlights. _
And [C] if the _ _ [F] blanket's passed, was it [Bb] something to think? _ _
_ [C] Was it always _ _ [G] just [F] _ _ _ straight [Dm] paper, _ [Bb] _ [F] _ _ _ [Dm] straight paper,
_ [F] _ _ _ [Dm] straight paper?
